Frequently Asked Questions

Who is GEICO’s registered agent in California?

GEICO General Insurance Company’s California registered agent is C T Corporation System, located at 330 N Brand Blvd, Suite 700, Glendale, CA 91203. We serve CT Corporation routinely — see our CT Corporation registered agent page for full details. (Always verify the current agent on file at the California Secretary of State business search before serving — agents can change.)

Which entity should I name in my service?

GEICO writes policies through several California-licensed companies. Common defendants include GEICO General Insurance Company, GEICO Indemnity Company, Government Employees Insurance Company, and GEICO Casualty Company. Pull the declarations page to find the issuing carrier — that’s the entity to name. CT Corporation accepts service for all GEICO entities in California.

Can I serve GEICO at a local claims office instead?

The most reliable way to serve GEICO is through their designated California registered agent. California law (CCP §415.10 / §416.10) allows service at a corporate headquarters in certain circumstances, but serving at a local claims office or branch may not satisfy the legal requirements for service on the corporation — and risks defective service that gets thrown out. Using the registered agent avoids that risk entirely. The cost is the same either way ($99 flat for registered agent service).

How fast can you serve CT Corporation?

Next-day in most cases, and same-day service is available for an additional $25. The CT Corporation office at 330 N Brand Blvd in Glendale is covered by our statewide service network, and there is no extra charge to you for service at that address. Rush jobs are no problem.

What types of legal documents do you serve on GEICO?

Every type — bad faith and breach of contract complaints, UM/UIM arbitration demands, deposition subpoenas, SDT subpoenas for claims files, examinations under oath, and PAGA notices. Auto insurance bad faith and UM/UIM disputes are the two highest-volume categories we handle for GEICO service.

What is the price difference between registered agent service and direct service?

Registered agent service is a flat $99 — that’s the recommended approach for almost all GEICO service. Direct service (when appropriate) is process serving and uses our tiered pricing: Standard $99 (5 days), Expedited $150 (3 days), Rush $175 (24 hours). For 95% of cases, registered agent service is the right choice and the cheaper option.
